This coffee tied for the third-highest rating in a cupping of coffees from Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador for Coffee Review’s March 2019 tasting report. Produced entirely from the trees of the celebrated Geisha (also spelled Gesha) variety of Arabica. This is a dry-processed or “natural” coffee, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit rather than after the fruit has been removed, as is the case with wet-processed or “washed” coffees. Plat Coffee is a specialty roaster and café in Hong Kong. For more information, visit https://www.platcoffee.com/.

The Bottom Line: A graceful natural-processed Geisha cup, understated and elegant in its clean fruit and deep cocoa notes.
